Most times in the app are shown in the time zone of the device you use, so an incident that started at 03:12 for you says 03:12. If your device changes time zone, the app follows. Where a day or a month starts and ends is set by one choice on your account, described below.
Where you choose a time zone
- Reports and day bars: under Account, Email reports, the Time zone for reports decides where days run midnight to midnight: in your reports, their CSV export and the 90-day bars on monitor pages. Email reports arrive at 07:00 in that zone. It is UTC until you pick one, and the card offers your device’s zone in one click.
- Cron jobs: a job on a cron schedule has its own Time zone, the one the server’s crontab runs in, often UTC. Daylight saving is followed. See how to monitor a cron job.
- On-call schedules: each schedule has a Time zone for when shifts change.
Where it is decided for you
- Status pages show times in UTC, with the zone written out, so every visitor reads the same clock.
- Client reports and client dashboards use UTC, so a month means the same to everyone who reads them.
